I keep getting trolled by Aggressive supports with Ignite and buy flat ap.

Title. Flat AP Blitz, no communication, goes flat ap. Even starts with the ap item Sona's supposed to start with... plays to get kills, doesn't play to help the team win teamfights, always and I do literally mean ALWAYS grabs Volibear and dies immediately to him.

Lux goes flat ap, ignite. She doesn't know how to lane. She commits to kill everytime she lands her Q E and she doesn't even auto attack between them for extra damage. Blames me for feeding when she actively and objectively rushes FOUR Needlessly Large Rods and ends up with what looks like a carry Lissandra build, except no Zhonyas and a terribly negative k/d/a ratio.

I can carry, I am a good adc, but no adc can carry without a competent support whose aim is actually to support them in lane. There is a time to be aggressive and a time to be cautious and you do not engage on a Varus/Leona combo bot under their tower every time you land your slow on them. (Not even snares .Those missed 90% of the time.)

I feel really bad about last game because on one hand, I had just hard carried a 4v5 game with US having the afk, not the enemy team, with Caitlyn going 20/3/9 and a neat quadra. The penta wasn't possible cuz I got an assist on the first enemy who died during rather than the actual kill. On the other hand, I play horribly and get tilted cuz top is feeding Volibear heavily, I'm getting camped while Lux roams because she's lost hope in the lane phase, I get dove and have to run away, give my tower up quickly, and we lose the lane phase just like that.

Unfortunately this is also a game where I begged to switch with someone because i had "MID" underneath my name instead of "BOT" and even still, the Lux refused to play like a teammate rather than a disgruntled ap carry on tilt trying to hard carry from the sidelines.

I like to play Vel'Koz support, especially since his recent changes. He does a lot of true damage and doesn't really need a lot of AP to be successful. Since the mage update, I've seen a lot more mage-style supports like Brand, Lux, and Vel'Koz.

Playing a mage support itself is not trolling. When they feed the enemy team kills or give away your position or sit afk, that's when they're trolling. A good adc will know how to play with mage supports and how to treat the lane differently than when you have an enchanter or tank support. Mage supports have significantly higher damage ratios than tank or enchanters and can do a lot of damage if you both land a full combo. As a Vel support, I like to signal when to go in if I land my CC and we can usually chunk someone out at lv 3 for an easy kill.

Learn how to play with your support rather than calling them a troll and dismissing them for their pick.
